[ADDED]: A panel to the schematic editor that allows quick access to all
of the items connected to the currently highlighted net.
This is an initial swag at implementing a full net navigator feature. For
now it only shows the currently highlighted net nodes. The incremental
net list advanced setting must be enabled in order to use this feature due
to performance reasons. There are still some issues with saving the panel
position which will be addressed in the future.
Initial code for serializing wxAuiPaneInfo settings to and from JSON have
be implemented.
Also simplifies the scoring algorithm so that it only
differentiates between exact-match, match-at-start and
any-match. The rest of the position-based matching
stuff is gone, as is the knowledge of the name vs the
keywords vs the description. All that is left to the
provider of the weighted search terms array.
Settings should be initialized on start-up. This removes the option of
lazily loading the settings from file and instead requires all settings
needed to be loaded on KiFACE start before requesting data from the
settings object
Move the internal columns and rebuild the table when a user moves the
columns. This is the only way to fix selection issues across reordered
columns.

This is mainly for simulation testing where the dialog has to be
grown every time you restart the app, but it might as well be applied
to the similar dialogs.

CHANGED: Symbol chooser search now considers custom symbol fields
Visible columns can be controlled in database libraries.
In standard KiCad libraries, we show columns for all custom fields for now.
Customizable column visibility will be added in the future.

Also adjusts metrics to better match stroke font.
Also removes text-halo highlighting as it's too expensive to re-render
when the zoom changes.

CHANGED: BOM generator plugins are no longer loaded by
searching all plugin directories; instead a
fixed default set of plugins is provided.
Also:
- Move from sexpr to JSON
- Support both full-path and no-path specifications of plugins
- Add a Reset to Defaults button to reset the list
